Eagle Nook Wilderness Resort &
Spa
Positioned on Vancouver Island’s fabulous
Barkley Sound, Eagle Nook Resort combines the
extraordinary beauty of Canada’s West Coast with
quick and easy access. Vancouver Island’s west
coast wilderness setting is one of BC’s greatest
natural attractions and Eagle Nook Resort is a
comfortable sanctuary amidst this world famous
region. The lodge combines a blend of
comfortable accommodation, professional staff,
friendly ambiance, excellent service and fine
food.
Barkley Sound is a remarkable maritime region of
islands, remote beaches and rain forests. The
Broken Island group form part of BC’s Pacific
Rim National Park. Wildlife is often spotted,
bald eagles, deer and heron are regular
neighbours! At the right time you may spot black
bear, gray whales or orcas. The clear waters of
Barkley Sound are popular with recreational
divers, here the natural collage of sea anemones
and starfish carpet the ocean floor.
Sea plane flights operate from Seattle – right
to the lodge! Or alternatively ‘self-drive’
guests drive to Ucluelet park and take daily
water taxi. From Vancouver, direct flights are
available to Tofino where a shuttle transfer to
Ucluelet and water taxi connections operate to
Eagle Nook.
Spa Treatments, the resident therapist offers a
range of massage types and special treatments.
